Anastasia Beverly Hills: La Jolla Studio

by Denise Shively

Anastasia Beverly Hills - La Jolla StudioAre you in the mood for a little pampering? Look no farther than Anastasia Beverly Hills, a La Jolla spa that’s sure to leave you feeling rejuvenated, relaxed and simply glowing.

Each spa treatment and service will allow you to experience a whole new level of “you,”; their extensive selection of face, body and salon treatments will amaze you.

While the spa caters to females, Anastasia also offers a variety of services specifically for the image-conscious male – everything from eyebrow shaping, to waxing and even facials.

Enjoy a relaxing day trip with the girls and invest in a world-class Glycolic facial, or indulge with a luxurious Swedish massage (available in 50 or 80 minute increments.)

With summer right around the corner, you may also want to choose from one of their several waxing services, including a full leg, bikini or underarm wax.

Alternatively, you may just want to pamper yourself for a day and have your makeup professionally done. If that’s the case, Anastasia will ensure you and your girlfriends leave looking like princesses with full makeup, a natural-looking airbrush tan and professional eyebrow shaping.

If I had to choose a favorite service, I’d definitely recommend the clarifying mask treatment or the Vitamin C Facial; both leave your skin positively glowing.

The spa also offers unique packages for bridal showers, baby showers, or graduation parties. Additionally, you can customize a package to suit nearly any event. What’s more, the spa offers on-location deals if you’re interested in hosting a private spa party for a bride-to-be, or simply a gathering of your closest girlfriends for a day of beauty and pampering.

Whatever you choose Anastasia Beverly Hills La Jolla Studio for, you’ll be assured of world-class treatment, a variety of services to choose from, and a dramatic revealing of the inner goddess you know you are!

Essence: The Spa on Mission Bay

Essence: The Spa on Mission BayFor a fun, relaxing day with the girls, there’s no other spa in San Diego like Essence.

The "spa on Mission Bay," located in the Hilton San Diego Resort offer a wealth of custom-designed spa treatments and services.
Enjoy 9 treatment rooms, a full-service hair and nail salon, plus an indoor/outdoor meditation lounge, if that’s your thing. The spa also offers a large boutique where you can purchase unique products and gifts to take home.

If you’d like to relax even more with your pals after your treatments, take advantage of Essence’s sun deck where you can enjoy over-sized lounge chairs, and sample some delicious cuisine.

If you’d like, you and your gal pals can ask about special day packages, where you’ll be treated like royalty for a special price.
Indulge in a wide variety of spa treatments, from facials to manicures, hair cuts to massages.

I’m especially fond of the Green Tea Peel, which leaves the skin looking absolutely radiant with no downtime whatsoever. If you desire silky, smooth skin with none of the undesirable side effects of other facials, this treatment is the way to go.

Of course, I’m also a fan of the Sacred Stone massage, which utilizes the ancient massage technique of hot stones on the body to deliver the ultimate in relaxation to tired, sore muscles.

Essence also offers an extensive selection of add-ons to make your day with the girls extra special. For example, you can add the option of a lavish bath soak, complete with your choice of rose petals, oils, or scrubs, before a facial or massage.

You could also ask for a customized blend of aromatherapy oils to help you relax further while you’re getting a massage. Honestly, your options are endless at Essence.

To make things super simple for you and your pals, you can all create your own customized packages, where you will receive three services of your choice while receiving a discount on all of them. It’s the simplest way to enjoy Essence!

Whether you want to unwind and relax with an intensive massage, or simply pal it up with the girls and get manicures and a haircut, Essence at the Hilton San Diego Resort will ensure all of you leave satisfied, relaxed, and gorgeous.
